The Role We’re hiring a Senior DevX Engineer to own and evolve the developer experience, internal tooling, and platform foundations at AskElephant. This is a hands-on, in-office role for a senior engineer who thrives on enabling other engineers, improving systems holistically, and working closely with product, infra, and AI-heavy workflows. You’ll be a force multiplier for the engineering team - reducing friction, improving reliability, supporting compliance efforts, and helping ensure our platform can safely and efficiently support a growing suite of AI-driven features.
What You’ll Do Developer Experience & Enablement
- Own the end-to-end developer experience across local development, CI/CD, and deployment.
- Build internal tools, libraries, and workflows that improve velocity, reliability, and confidence.
- Partner closely with engineers to unblock issues, improve documentation, and raise engineering standards.
- Establish best practices, guardrails, and patterns that scale with the team.
Platform & Infrastructure
- Design, build, and maintain core platform components on GCP
- Improve observability, monitoring, alerting, and operational readiness.
- Collaborate with product engineers to ensure infrastructure supports product and AI workloads.
AI Tooling & Systems
- Work closely with teams integrating multiple AI into their development workflows
- Build abstractions and tooling to make AI systems easier to develop, test, evaluate, and operate.
- Support experimentation while ensuring reliability and production readiness.
Compliance, Security & Reliability
- Play a key role in compliance initiatives (e.g., SOC 2), including tooling, processes, and documentation.
- Help implement secure-by-default patterns around data access, secrets, and environments.
- Ensure developer workflows align with security, privacy, and operational requirements.
What We’re Looking For Required
- 6–10+ years of professional software engineering experience.
- Strong background in developer experience, platform, or infrastructure-adjacent engineering.
- Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure (GCP strongly preferred).
- Experience supporting and enabling other engineers at scale.
- Solid backend experience with APIs, databases (Postgres), and event-driven systems.
- Experience working with AI systems, tooling, or model integrations.
- Comfort working in an in-office, highly collaborative environment.
Nice to Have
- Experience leading or owning DevX or internal platform initiatives.
- Familiarity with compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001).
- Experience with GraphQL APIs and schema design.
- Startup or early-growth company experience.
